[Fedora-xen] VNC and FreeNX disrupted is lost under XEN Dom0 kernel (mouse and keyboard are frozen)
Hello, I thought there is a pobrlem between FreeNX and FC6 XEN Dom0 kerenel but now I discovered that there is also the same problem between VNC server and XEN enabled kernel (vnc-server-4.1.2-9.fc6 and 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen). Does anybody have the same problem? Do you know any workaround?
